I think I have a good guess Tinman. But it was a hard one. I was driving all day from Kentucky to South Carolina and when I logged on at 3:00 PM here I just knew the second clue would have been guessed. So maybe my luck is continuing. I have been so lucky since I joined this group which is a stark change from all my previous years. And the people here are all the reward a person could ask for. I watched "The Good Life" again on Tuesday after Gregory mentioned it moved me. Oh well, If I get this point I will take a break and let some others guess gr. JC

JC I don't think you have a good guess I think you hit it right on the head. Very logical. Water, Steel on my back ( ships ) have given life & taken with so many souls below and treasures behold ( water for sure and first clue NORTH ), Many names and one the greatest= Superior = Great lakes = Lake Superior. If thats not right then I'm made of Alluminun and Not Tin.
WTG ! Don't back off cuz now it will be more of a challenge to knock you out of first place. Right now, You Da Man !

Default JC Strikes Again!

Hello everyone - hope all of you had a great Thanksgiving...I know Peggy and I sure did!

JC - you da man! The answers for which I was looking was either "great lakes" or "Lake Superior"...JC's answer on 11/21 @ 1:42 was the first correct answer - so now 2 points for the young man from Kentucky!

I'll try to post Clue#3 later tonight - after I catch-up on the stuff that I actually supplies my paycheck!

Nice going JC - and I hope everyone is enjoying the contest!

Default EPC Guy's Treasure - Clue #3

OK folks! So far, JC has proved to be the great detective and leads the pack by correctly solving the first two clues...but let's just see how he does on this one...

First, a recap of the first two clues:

1. North
2. Great Lakes / Lake Superior

Now for today's head-scratcher...

If it's treasure you seek - this clue is not for the meek;
Every place has many names, and the names you must discover are three;
To locate my digger - a common thread you must figger ;
between fine crystal, Ed Norton and me! (EPC Guy)

Good Luck!
